Sweet and Titbits
When it comes to junk food, I have to be stern and lenient, depending on time and occasions. There are a lot of junk food in my house, not bought by me, some other family members. The older kids bring junks to school for tea break, and MIL will ensure that they will never be out of supply.
But my kids are “seduced” to junk food temptation since young. I can easily stop them from trying when they are younger, but after 1 year old, when they being to show independence, they can open the cabinets, fridge, containers and take the snack that they want. But I have to make sure that snacking comes after proper meals, and cannot replace the meals that they are taking.
However, there is a disadvantage to this. My boy gained some weight lately, as he likes snacking for junks after meals, which means he eats twice per meal. So, it’s about time I be stern on junks again, before I have an overweight boy!
